[Cartoweb-users] Edit plugin.

[Oliver Christen]

Hi

there is a tutorial to learn how to use the edit tools:
http://www.cartoweb.org/cwiki/HowToUseTheEdition

as for the error you get, it's because your CONNECTION values for your layer 
are not valid.

I suggest you look at the demoEdit mapfile for an example of editable layer 
configuration. (simply replace the @xxxx@ by correct values)

regards
Oliver
